How could that have been a brave struggle? I thought Anorexia Nervosa was self-inflicted starvation. So that's like saying "Harry died after a brave struggle with asphyxiation in the garage where he closed all the windows and started his car and went to sleep". -Have I got something wrong, or is PEOPLE Magazine everything I thought it was?
